Is it easier to remove Snap from Ubuntu or Edge from Windows 11?
Snap, and just uninstalling a snap provided program is even easier. Or just getting the system to use your own non snap program as default.
When I was first starting out my programming adventures with Python, someone told me that I should work with Python 3 instead of 2 because that’s what will be maintained in the future (this was some 8 years ago). I decided to listen and when I got home I opened up my terminal, wrote:
sudo apt-get remove python
Followed by
sudo apt-get install python3
Only to be suddenly greeted with:
sudo: command not found
For those wondering which xkcd:
Can you refer to windows as edge/windows?
Edge is so trashy. It’s constantly trying to shove politics, celebrity gossip and Bing down your throat.
And that, kids, is how Linus fucked his Pop!_OS installation.
Well you can still uninstall edge on windows, even if it break your system, you can do it. There are tons of guides you can find on internet. It’s basically running the installer with an uninstall flag.
Steps to remove GRUB on Debian: “doas apt purge grub-efi* -y” “doas rm -rf /boot/efi/EFI/debian”
This is how I feel about Java vs Go/C#/etc
Which is java and which is C# lmao
“Yes, I know what I am doing”
*system fails to boot
*surprised Linus face
Edge is decent, it’s my main browser now
Decent browser? Absolutely. Privacy oriented enough to trust with my data? Lol, heck no!
No, its not your main browser. [tries to gaslight]
Enjoy your spyware.
I used edge for a while, but went back to Firefox after about decade of not using it. Love having extensions on mobile, makes browsing a lot better!
The thing that started sending all your pics to Microsoft for “enhancement”?
Even if it was perfect and everyone should use it. The issue is that you can not remove (uninstall) it, which you should be able to do, especially for a browser.
You fr?
In terms of usability? Yeah, edge is good, especially if you are a fan of vertical tabs. After all, it’s just yet another chromium-based browser. In terms of privacy? Oh god no, given Microsoft’s track record it’s probably the worst browser out there in that regard.
Honestly, I do love having the freedom to shoot myself in the foot. I should always have the freedom to brick my computer by being an idiot.
I actually switched to Fedora from Endavour for the opposite reason. I hated shooting myself in the foot, somehow I always did that on whatever Arch thing I had.
